Guys, this is very clearly Diablo. It's the exact same design/artstyle. That and the developers all but confirmed the next expansion will be announced at the game awards.
We never know if things are gonna get better or worse when a figure like that leaves. That being said, people are actually too reactive to Diablo in general. The game is actually in its best state. I'm sure come expansion two some lingering issues will be ironed out, but people are gonna complain regardless, such is the internet. Some guys play every single season, have hundreds of hours clocked and say there's nothing to do.
Honestly it was just so out of left field, kind of outrageous. I have disposable income to buy the games I want, by I might just ignore some launches and go for my backlog, just out of principle
It's a shame, really. I never got myself one but always wanted to. It's just that it's really expensive. Even 50% off it still isn't cheap. I'll get on eventually
I mean, that is cool - but you can't help but feel for those that bought the PS5 Pro already on the promise that everything would just work. And most of it does, but you know... And 2026 is really far away
The nerve some people have to come to this comment section with a bunch of nonsense, get thoroughly corrected and still keep going. The internet at its best.
On topic: I was late to the party on HFW, just finished it last month, and gosh. How much better this is compared to HZD. Just fixing the inventory management alone made me sink dozens more hours. Best open world I played since Cyberpunk. I'm very excited for Horizon 3 and whatever this online game turn into
I haven't played Assassin's Creed since forever, never got to the last 3 RPG entries. We've always wanted AC in Japan for so long and it never came. And then Ghost of Tsushima happened. That being said, if I ever go back to Assassin's Creed, it will be with this one. It does look cool, I might pick this next month. Bleach Rebirth of Souls comes out in the same week and I'll have my hands full for a while
@ErrantRob Yeah, I agree. This is completely harmless. Don't like it, don't pick the option. Knowing there's a "correct" canon story hurts nobody. If someone cares about AC's story and RPG canon so much that this bothers them, I suggest touching some grass
I'm shocked at those poll results, lol. You guys are delusional if you think the Switch 2 isn't gonna take a large piece of PS5's market. And that's only from the "Nintendo doing its own thing" perspective. Because even doing its own thing it will sell better than the PS5 in the long run
The game is great and feature complete, DLC isn't necessary. That being said, given that we know where the DLC would've gone, it's disappointing. I'm sure Chameleon and Carnage's stories will continue on the eventual sequel, but something tells me we're not getting that spider-verse mashup, which is a shame.
I mean, he's not wrong. Sorry guys, you can list all of PS1 and PS2 era dead IPs, truth is they're not very relevant, most of them weren't that big a deal back then.
It's actually pretty polished. Loved the fungus guy. Don't think I'll be playing though. There are plenty of black hole games in my life already, don't need one more
Its honestly one of my favorite Final Fantasy games. Combat is great, story is great, Clive is a fantastic protagonist. DLC was awesome. Side quests could be a little hit and miss, but an-in-all a phenomenal game
I am low-key ignoring FFXVI because there are so many other games I'm interested in playing from now trough June~July that I'm kinda waiting for a sale on this one. That and the fact that FFXV released super unfinished, so it's wait and see for me. That said, I'm glad people are so positive! Definitely gonna keep an eye on reviews.
A real shame, because the gameplay actually looks solid. But I definitely won't be picking this up anymore, even if it reviews well. Like c'mon, did it really need a battle pass? How tone deaf can they get?
@guntam Speak for yourself, mate. There's no PS Now in Brazil. I don't even have an opinion on the service because it's just not available in my country
I mean, if the selection is good? I'm in Brazil, we don't even have PS Now here. So tbh if this service even launches here, it's better than NOTHING lol
It's also worth pointing out that, as of season 6, everyone needs to connect to an Epic Games Account. Cross-progression is now enabled, much like Rocket League and Fortnite. Actual cross play (not just custom games) is coming sometime this season. Switch and Xbox still don't have a release date, but they confirmed it's not launching this year.
I just wanted to say that it'd be easy for a PlayStation fan site to merely report the news or eventually report on the controversy, but you've called them on this nonsense since the beginning and I very much appreciate it.
Sammy, forgive my ignorance, but I'm very confused right now. When I check Ghost of Tsushima's page on my PS4 right now there's only one expansion option: the Director's Cut upgrade, which includes the Iki Island Expansion. There's no mention of a second purchase of a PS5 upgrade. Is it because I'm checking on PS4?
For anyone that stopped playing after awhile, I recommend checking back with friends again. Last season's stages were really good, and the new ones look cool as well.
@AFCC How long have you not played the game? They've actually been updating the graphics in the past few months. The difference is very noticeable. Here's an example: https://youtu.be/IS0zfiH4faM They're even updating character models. And the menus have been changed a fair amount as well
Friendly reminder that Sony is a huge corporation and that they primarily care about profit. It's never been "For the players", and never will be. Nintendo and Microsoft are the same. Microsoft's been playing nice with Xbox in the last half a decade to regain their reputation

Re: Ghost of Yotei Dev Eager to Push Creatively and Technically with Anticipated PS5 Sequel
@Frmknst hell no. Let games be games. Horizon Forbidden West did put an option to skip pickup animations thou. So I guess keep the option?

Re: More Overwatch 2 Controversy Over Passive Healing for More Heroes
As a main healer, I don't mind this at all. Less whining from DPS heroes is a good thing. I wonder if giving it to tanks is overkill though.
Re: Mortal Kombat 1's Expansive Invasion Mode Plays Like a Board Game
